Given the virtual machine degree of separation from the hardware, can this issue actually be detected and exploited in the operating systems that run virtually?? If there is a slow down associated with the fix, ho...

Linux TCP flaw
Hi So after reading this, felt I should apply the fix to a CentOS6 VPS that I have. http://www.zdnet.com/article/linux-tcp-flaw-lets-anyone-hijack-internet-traffic/ The article doesn't talk about CentOS or Redhat, but I assume the problem is the same, and hoping the solution is the same. However that doesn't seem to be the case. [root at vps ~]# uname -r 2.6.32-042stab108.7 [root at vps ~]# sysctl -a | grep ack_l...

Samba 4.1.6 huge security flaw
Hi all, I've been running Samba 4.1.6 in production for 2 weeks now and it's been great. However I noticed a huge security flaw today that I hit only once. I access Samba4 shares over the VPN that is irrelevant since the security access is user-based, not IP based. What happens right after the connection, Windows tries to read the shares and some are empty, but they are not supposed to be. Then, after about 3-5 minutes, the...

Latent flaw in SEXPREC definition
There seems to be a latent flaw in the definition of struct SEXPREC in Rinternals.h, which likely doesn't cause problems now, but could if the relative sizes of data types changes. The SEXPREC structure contains a union that includes a primsxp, symsxp, etc, but not a vecsxp. However, in allocVector in memory.c, zero-length...

BUG: atan(1i) / 5 = NaN+Infi ?
...really truly is a bug here, and it is treating R*Z, Z*R, and Z/R > as if they were > the same as W*Z, Z*W, and Z/W where W = complex(1,R,0). I would only disagree with the statement above by distinguishing between a "bug" (where R is not behaving as documented) and a "design flaw" (where it is behaving as documented, but the behaviour is undesirable). I think this is a design flaw rather than a bug. The distinction is important: if it is a design flaw, then a change is harder, because users who rely on the behaviour deserve more help in adapting than those who re...

This will be the only fix included in these release numbers. The flaw caused all smbd processes to inherit CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE capabilities, allowin...
